Can't say I have any memories of Exxon tankers. The first time I ever heard about Exxon was the Valdez incident. Instead we had 671. Same model, different colors. And allthough I have to admit I liked it I'm afraid it was never my favorite... In (...) (24 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)
